[...] Vu sur WhiteAfrican : A noter, que ce blog en effectuant la revue de cette campagne a émis une remarque négative qui a tout de suite était prise en compte par l’annonceur : cela aussi fait partit des bonnes pratiques du marketing sur le web social !! [...]

Thanks for the great pointer, very user friendly site, though I’m not sure how big an advantage there is over just searching directly on Flickr.

Hi Hash, Thanks for the kind review. I can confirm that there is indeed a link to each image's flickr page. Clearly, it was just a little hidden... When you mouse-over an image in the search results, a tool-tip appears. The text in the tool-tip links through to flickr. These links were not underlined previously. Now they are. The lightbox also now has a link to each photo's page on flickr. We look forward to seeing what people search for in Africa and hearing about people's ideal trip through Africa in our blogging/flickr competition.
